Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between standard and express MSK provisioned pricing?
Standard provisioned pricing centers on broker-hours plus storage and optional throughput or private-connectivity dimensions, while Express uses broker-hours plus storage and per-GB ingress pricing.
What dimensions does MSK Serverless charge for?
MSK Serverless pricing is modeled with cluster-hours, partition-hours, storage GB-month, data in GB, and data out GB using the public AmazonMSK offer file for the selected region.
Does this calculator include separate AWS networking charges?
No. This tool intentionally limits v1 cost math to charges published under AmazonMSK. Separate AWS data transfer or PrivateLink charges should be estimated independently.
